Pat Cleveland Career

Career

Cleveland's career as a model began in 1966 when she was riding a subway platform with a friend en route to class, and was noticed by the assistant to Carrie Donovan, Vogue's fashion editor. Donovan, who was captivated by Cleveland's chic clothing, invited her to visit the Vogue offices, where the magazine later published a story on her as an up-and-coming young designer. The article resulted in her being approached by Ebony, who asked Cleveland if she would appear as a model for its Fashion Fair national runway tour. Cleveland has accepted that she would put her plans to be a designer on hold and try her luck as a fashion photographer.

Cleveland attracted designers such as Jacques Tiffeau and Stephen Burrows after her tour with Ebony, in which she suffered acts of racial bigotry in the Southern United States. After designer Oleg Cassini initially recommended her to Eileen Ford at age 18, she was signed to Wilhelmina Models. Ford has denied Cleveland based on her ethnicity, according to Cleveland.

She made her first appearance in American Vogue in June 1970, photographed by Berry Berenson and the same year, and appeared in Essence magazine's first issue. Cleveland grew disillusioned with America and what she perceived to be its racial attitudes toward black models despite her early triumph. She moved to Paris after being introduced by fashion illustrator Antonio Lopez in 1971 and soon became a house model for Karl Lagerfeld, Chloé's principal designer. Cleveland vowed not to return to the United States until a black model appeared on Vogue's American cover. She modeled for designers such as Valentino, Oscar de la Renta, Yves Saint Laurent, Thierry Mugler, Diane von Furstenberg, and Christian Dior during the 1970s. Karen Bjornson, Anjelica Huston, Alva Chinn, Elsa Peretti, and others joined her as one of Halston's most popular troupe of models, the Halstonettes. She was one of many of his former models to be interviewed for the documentary film Halston in 2019.

The pinnacle of her fame in Europe was her appearance in the Battle of Versailles Fashion Show, a charity fundraiser and a public service held at Théâtre Gabriel on November 28, 1973; a gala show that was originally imagined as a publicity stunt and fundraiser for Versailles's then-dilapidated Palace of Versailles. In a fashion showdown, five French designers, Yves Saint Laurent, Hubert de Givenchy, Pierre Cardin, Emanuel Ungaro, and Christian Dior's Marc Bohan face five American designers: Bill Blass, Oscar de la Renta, Anne Klein, Halston, and Stephen Burrows were among five French designers battling five American designers: Bill Blasss, Oscar de la Renta, Anne Klein, Halston, and Stephen Burrows With style writers and society columnists, wealthy socialites, prince, tycoons, and politicians, the festival became an international fashion extravaganza. Cleveland was one of 36 models to walk the runway for the event. Ten of the 36 models were black, an unprecedented number for the time. Robin Givhan chronicled the gala later in the 2015 Pulitzer Prize winning The Battle of Versailles: The Night American Fashion Stumbled into the Spotlight and Made History.

Cleveland returned to the United States and continued her modeling career after Beverly Johnson became the first black model to appear on American Vogue's front page in August 1974. Elle, S. She appeared on the front pages of: Vanity Fair, Interview, Essence, Harper's, Cosmopolitan, Women's Wear Daily, L'Officiel, The Sunday Times Magazine, GQ, Vogue Paris, W, and Elle from the early to late 1970s.

She became a fixture at New York City's exclusive discothèque Studio 54, including Halston, Jerry Hall, Grace Jones, Andy Warhol, and Sterling St. Jacques.

Cleveland has sporadically returned to modeling after raising two children. She founded her own modeling company in Milan in 1995. During Paris Fashion Week in 2003, Cleveland and her daughter Anna walked for Chanel. She appeared on the documentary Ultrasuede, In Search of Halston, and in the same year, she appeared as a guest judge on America's Next Top Model's reality television series and interactive competition. '73: The American Runway Revolution and Timothy Greenfield-Sanders' About Face: Supermodels In 2012, she appeared in two more fashion documentaries, Versailles '73: The American Runway Revolution and Timothy Greenfield-Sanders' About Face: Then and Now. In 2013, she appeared on The Face, a modeling-themed reality television show hosted by model Naomi Campbell, and in 2013 was featured on a MAC Cosmetics ad campaign for MAC Cosmetics with models Jerry Hall and Marisa Berenson, who died of AIDS in 1987 and who had been close friends with all three models and influential in their early careers.

In 2014, she walked the runway for Moschino's Spring Collection in Milan and appeared on the front page of Numéro Russia, shot and styled by Tom Ford. She returned to New York Fashion Week in 2015 to walk the runway for Zac Posen, who also hired her and her daughter Anna to showcase his June 2015 resort collections, appeared in Vogue Japan and appeared in a Barneys New York ad campaign.

Celebrity cameos. Backstage boozing. Fights over the front row… LYNNE FRANKS on how she started London Fashion Week in a tent 40 years ago

www.dailymail.co.uk, February 15, 2024
Months of planning had resulted in this moment. Months of cajoling designers, models, resp., and style watchers, have all lent their help - and money - to a hitherto unintentional venture: a show that exhibits the best of British fashion under one roof. Or, rather, one square of canvas. I felt a surge of pride and pure excitement as I watched the last touches being applied to the huge tent that would host the first ever London Fashion Week. I knew some of these people had been skeptical, but as I stood at the back of this amazing new space, I hoped that this would be the start of something amazing.
